November 2022

voices from the ground

We, at Looking the occupation in the eye, contact you regarding the ongoing oppression and denial of Human Rights in the Occupied Territories carried out by the State of Israel, its Security Forces and the illegal settlers in the west bank. As the situation worsens daily in front of our eyes, we increase our efforts to deliver information about life under the Israeli occupation.

 

In the November newsletter you will find articles about two activists, one Palestinian who is building the "Garden of Hope", and an Israeli activist and his way to fight Apartheid effectively and righteously. New posts about olive harvest, collective punishment in the occupied territories and Hagar Gefen in her own words.

With the hope for a better future for those living between the Jordan River and the sea.
